I have a lot of Wikipedia experience, particularly in the LDS area, and I
have system administrator privileges there.  I know at least one other
participant on this list is an experienced Wikipedian.

The Wikipedia community stalwarts are fiercely committed to a non-negotiable
policy of non-bias.  The non-bias policy states that all significant points
of view must be represented appropriately and that when any point of view is
represented, it must be done with a sympathetic tone.  The best way to
improve Wikipedia is to present all information of interest with source
citations as though you were explaining to your teenage kid all the
diversity of opinion and information in the world regarding the First
Vision.

For the First Vision article, it would be appropriate to include a statement
that in the LDS Church the 1838 account of the vision is canonical.
